Proposal for a regulation
Recital 161
Recital 161
(161) In order to ensure the absence of professional conflicting interests that may affect or risk affecting the capacity to perform the contract in an independent, impartial and objective manner, it is necessary to clarify the obligations of the contracting authority and of the candidates or tenderers. On the one hand, the candidates, tenderers, and, where appropriate, entities on whose capacity they rely as well as envisaged subcontractors should declare the absence of such conflicting interests, and to provide related information where requested. On the other hand, the contracting authority should assess the existence of such professional conflicting interests when declared or on the basis of additional information without interfering or delaying the evaluation of the project. Where such professional conflicting interests are established, this should lead to rejection from the award.
Amendment 16 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 165
Recital 165
(165) It is necessary to simplify the rules governing dynamic purchasing systems reducing the time consuming procedures, including the resolving of the appeals, to enable contracting authorities to take full advantage of the possibilities afforded by that purchasing method. In particular, the systems should be operated in the form of a restricted procedure, thus allowing for any economic operator that submits a request to participate and meets the exclusion and selection criteria to take part in procurement procedures carried out through the dynamic purchasing system over its period of validity, which should not be limited to four years. Tenders may also be presented in the form of an electronic catalogue particularly for off- the-shelf products or services generally available on the market. Moreover, in order to reduce the administrative burden given the dynamic nature of the systems, the requirement to appoint an opening and evaluation committee should be waived for specific procurements under a dynamic purchasing system. Considering the progress in digitalisation of procurement procedures, it should be clarified that public openings for open procedures may be organised remotely via video conferences.
